Alone In Paradise

© 2009 Mark Cote

sitting alone in paradise
overwhelmed by the blinding lights
too many choices what to do
I close my eyes and think of you

the faces a blur in motion
happiness in colored commotion
the only voice that calls out to me
 is the mighty roar of a lonely sea

(chorus) alone in paradise, a gull on the shore
                alone in paradise, cries never more
                love around me everywhere
                but not a single love to share

stranded in this beautiful dream
a lone traveler to forever it seems
can't wake, can't take it all in
running a race I will never win
(chorus)

(bridge) when the ones that see have no eyes
                the ones that hear have no ears
(chorus)
